pseudosaid··on The AI Build-Out Is Becoming the Biggest Economic Bet in U.S. History
open models won’t burn. local aficionados won’t stop using local. low cost low hardware requirements will become more of a focus as a push for embedded models that compartmentalize ai functions will be the boon. the markets may crash, but the knowledge and current hardware owned won’t

what a cute anecdote. much success to your assurances

could you not be like that? provide alternative language or go away. If youre offended, say so and be real. Noncommittal posits of personal preference are linguistic mosquitos of communication. on the flip side, how dare you disenfranchise a legitimate adhd perspective. one that i would say is entirely valid as someone functionally crippled by such plight. If you truly are offended, perhaps there is some truth you are reacting to preventing you from truly responding in good faith. words are lame like that ya? mine are as nauseating as your flyby ego droppings.

Sounds like a message is being sent when it could have been an example. How kind

pseudosaid··on The Life and Death of Direct File [pdf]
It didnt happen because Intuit lobbied against it like their business model was in existential crisis. The canary is that inappropriate power imbalances will ruin even the most hard one feats of human collaboration and effort. Its like learning about why jaywalking became a crime, or why recycling is a consumer’s respobsibility. Edit: So I'm about as original as a model can be as I went to go fact check myself and I basically cliff noted an AI summary for yall pre-gen.

pseudosaid··on About the security content of macOS Tahoe 26.6
for real? it did, like every subsequent photo taken on the device after pressing the shutter “button”. You must be a bot, just another living shill. another confident user error in the field

really? yes it does. a bribe is answer.

youre missing the point entirely and opted to entertain your own framework
pseudosaid··on ICE to keep an eye on your eyes under $25M biometric scanner deal
The amount of funding this organization is receiving is irrational without some kind of goal. What on earth are they going to do with their astronomical budget?
pseudosaid··on Oura says it gets government demands for user data
this is such a hacker news comment. expounding needlessly. e2e implies encryption at the source and endpoint which entails encryption along all transit paths. its not that deep. if its not encrypted at the source “ring”, then it cant be e2e. I get your semantics but its just a waste, as is my comment here.

its usually those with financial interests and objectives simply corrupt politicians to legislate their way into reality. politicians serve the highest bidder

pseudosaid··on How Corrupt Is Trump? Here Are the Numbers
why cant this just be a table? an impressively large table should speak for itself. Far easier to share and have passed around.
pseudosaid··on A laser-based process that enables adhesive-free paper packaging
no one mentioned recycling. you introduced that. the above poster is simply conflating altering a materials surface to be sticky, with applying a 3rd party compound to achieve tack. its intellectually tacky, and i dont even know what youre doing. youre just leveraging this to bring about a point of your own, which is deserving of being its own parent comment. but in earnest reply, the question I have is in the change in material surface that becomes sticky. How does that become incompatible with current recycling processes if the base material was compatible? I dont know enough chemistry but it seems to me the post-co2-treatment material should break down the same way in an industrial recycling process.
pseudosaid··on A laser-based process that enables adhesive-free paper packaging
dont be like that. so semantic youre missing the point so you can dote on yourself.

I feel like its pretty obvious they mean an adhesive in the sense of an additional substance or agent. Just because they use a laser to modify the paper structure to effectively become sticky, doesnt detract at all from the goal and point of the title. that no additional products/agent/glues were needed.

absolutely missing the point of it all just to jerk your ego off.

this is so prevalent on HH that it’s normalized and most the cerebral bozos cant read between lines beyond their self righteous vantage.

the github mentions tidal integrations. i hope they are adding random delays between each download or that user is gonna get their account auto deleted by tidal.

Really? Sounds like they are a customer.
pseudosaid··on New lab-grown human embryo model produces blood cells
it wouldnt matter because of the context. It is expected that an embryo grows into a baby that is born. The very delaying of that expectation that denotes the slave label. Preventing the natural progression is a retardation of freedom. Since these embryo units are designed and purpose built, they are no more slave than the native embryo. If these designer embryos have capacity to develop further on their own, then there is an argument and correlation to be made.

pseudosaid··on I don't think AGI is right around the corner
tell that to the derivatives market. It should be obvious that the stock market is divorced from actual value. fundamentals are meaningless now, there is zero penalty for failing to deliver securities, and 95% of all retail trades dont even hit lit markets. Price discovery doesnt exist and neither does the concept of a free market. Open your eyes and see that the market is a sham ponzi scheme where siphoning real value out kf the system is its main objective.
pseudosaid··on Rocknix is an immutable Linux distribution for handheld gaming devices
devs threw in m8c and its dependencies so you can hook up a teensy 4.1 flashed with Dirtywave’s headless M8 firmware, and make music on the handheld. 8 mono tracks, synths and samplers. it turns any handheld running this into a decent DAW

pseudosaid··on The great displacement is already well underway?
ignore those addicted to negativity. for most people, their life is just reducing awareness to fit into their adlib structured arguments to assuage their insecurities. “Im so smart, i can ignore possibilities and unknowns and frame a thought construct that boosts my sense of ego and importance!”
pseudosaid··on The Audio Stack Is a Crime Scene
A stereo mix is in fact trivial and roughly assumes a left right speaker arrangement. Software summing is math and is the same across digital audio workstations because math is math. Are there 3 or more microphones? doesnt matter, each mic is a mono input. trying to capture a facsimile of a perceived stereo field? use ORTF mic spacing and hard pan those mono inputs appropriately.

Stereo is just dual mono. its that simple. Summing is just math, its that trivial.

Creating a mix of multiple inputs for a stereo lr output? also completely trivial from a technical standpoint. Hardly trivial from a creative pov, but that isnt what this is about.

pseudosaid··on The Unbearable Loudness of Chewing
being annoyed is a result of all ready being in discomfort and blaming whatever stimuli you can scapegoat to avoid acknowledging your own dis-ease.

walk around with some chronic pain, and see how quick everything annoys you and how self righteous that disapproval is.

More like the unbearable displacement of blame
